Abstract

*Let's be honest from the beginning. I do not like yoga videos. Perhaps I am hopelessly old-fashioned; but I simply believe that yoga is best taught in that dynamic relationship between student and teacher - live. However, I am also a practical person. *For Annalisa Cunningham, author of Stretch and Surrender : a Guide to Yoga, Health, and Relaxation for People in Recovery, a combination of Hatha Yoga with the Twelve Step philosophy has opened the way to recovery. As a counselor at Feather River Alcohol and Chemical Recovery Program in California, Cunningham developed a yoga program for patients, family members, and the community at large. *Connie Weiss has been teaching yoga classes for over twenty years. She has been influenced by Indra Devi, the Iyengar tradition, and, most recently, by T.K.V. Desikachar and Professor A.G. Mohan. In response to the needs of her students she has put together an excellent manual for people of all levels "to facilitate individual practice sessions."
